In Auriea Harvey’s The Mystery [v5-dv1], sculpture exists in both the digital and physical realms. Symbolic imagery evoking concepts of Memento Mori, found in the skull (bone), a face (nature), a rose (beauty), and a braid (death). Using self-portraiture, Harvey is inserting the beginning of an African-American woman into art history, an overdue revision of the narrative.
